## List fine-tuning jobs

**get** `/fine_tuning/jobs`

List your organization's fine-tuning jobs

### Query Parameters

- `after: optional string`

  Identifier for the last job from the previous pagination request.

- `limit: optional number`

  Number of fine-tuning jobs to retrieve.

- `metadata: optional map[string] or null`

  Optional metadata filter. To filter, use the syntax `metadata[k]=v`. Omitting the parameter or passing an empty object applies no metadata filter. An empty value, such as `metadata[k]=`, filters for that key with an empty string value.
  To select jobs with null metadata, send the literal query string `metadata=null`. Nullable caller types do not specify how a client serializes null for a deep-object parameter. Use a raw query parameter if the client omits null. Do not combine the two query forms.
